  1. 1. Product Information Quality : A sustainability challenge in design and construction

    Author : Soheila Bahrami; Avdelningen för Byggproduktion; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Standardization; sustanability; Product information; Building design; industrialized construction;

    Abstract : The adverse consequences of building product performance pose sustainability problems for the built environment. Effective approaches to these problems require a clear understanding of building product information and its provision by manufacturers. READ MORE

  2. 2. Challenges in Global Multi-Variant Serial Production - A Study of Manufacturing Engineering Processes

    Author : Pierre Johansson; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; product and production complexity; product variety; product and process standardization; Global production networks;

    Abstract : Global manufacturing companies have hard times to manage their global production networks as dispersion in their networks increases. Such dispersion is caused by the increasing level of product variety and more parameters to control as the networks grow. Handling product variety becomes more difficult as products become more complex and integrated. READ MORE

  3. 3. Model driven process planning for machining : Theory, application and improved information standards for efficient product realization

    Author : Mikael Hedlind; Torsten Kjellberg; Fumihiko Kimura; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Process planning; modeling; ISO 10303; CADCAM; kinematics; Beredning; modellering; ISO 10303; CADCAM; kinematik; SRA - Production; SRA - Produktion;

    Abstract : Model driven process planning is a methodology that emphasizes the application of models to create, represent and use information of products, processes and resources. Industry today stores information in a fragmented manner, mainly document centered with the consequence of data duplication requiring comprehensive data management and maintenance. READ MORE

  4. 4. Supporting the design phase of industrialised house building using a product platform approach : A case study of a timber based post and beam building system

    Author : Shamnath Thajudeen; Fredrik Elgh; Martin Lennartsson; Marcus Sandberg; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Industrialised house building; Product platform; Design support; Building system; Post and beam; Glulam; Industriellt husbyggande; Produktplattformar; Designstöd; Byggsystem; Pelar-balksystem; Limträ;

    Abstract : In recent years, industrialised house building has gained shares on the Swedish house building market. The market demands for industrialised house building are exceeding the available supply of housing and experiencing a substantial increase in the housing production costs. READ MORE

  5. 5. Product Platform Development. Managerial Issues in Manufacturing Firms

    Author : Niklas Sundgren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; product platform development; platform characteristics; platform project; platform concept; managerial issues;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with product platform development - the development of a set of subsystems and interfaces that form a common structure from which a stream of derivative products can be efficiently developed and produced. A platform approach to product development can reduce lead time and product cost throughout a firm's internal value chain by reaping benefits from economies of scale. READ MORE
